Questions and Answers

What is the main function of the intercostal muscles?

  • To separate the thoracic cavity from the abdominal cavity
  • To control the expansion and contraction of the thorax during breathing (correct)
  • To regulate the flow of blood through the lungs
  • To provide support for the ribs

    • What is the role of the diaphragm in the breathing process?

  • The diaphragm constricts the thoracic cavity to force air out of the lungs
  • The diaphragm contracts to increase the size of the thoracic cavity (correct)
  • The diaphragm relaxes to increase the size of the thoracic cavity
  • The diaphragm remains stationary during breathing

    • What is the normal state of breathing in animals?

  • Breathing is an active process that requires constant effort
  • Breathing only occurs during respiratory distress or pathology
  • Breathing is controlled entirely by the diaphragm and intercostal muscles
  • Breathing is mostly an inactive process, unless the animal is panting (correct)
